ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the character of tannin Acacia mangium barks and to
compare dimensional stability and strength of MDF prepared using tannin from A. mangium in
combination with commerciai UF, PF resin systems The bark was water extracted, in a water to bark
ratio of 5:1 at temperature range of 60-70°C for 4 hour. Tannin-adhesive formulations prepared were:
1) UF-resin, 2) tannin extract + UF = 50% + 50%, 3) tannin extract + UF = 60% + 40%, 4) PF-resin,
5) tannin extract + PF = 50% + 50%, 6) tannin extract + PF = 60% + 40%. The extractive content of
bark was 22.29%. The reactivity of extractives towards formaldehyde, as measured by Stiasnymethod, was about 90.94%. The results indicted that the pH decreased with increasing of tannin
concentration and the viscosity range of various formulation tannin-adhesives was between 2.5 to 30
poise. To a certain extent, the content of tannin in UF-resin systems has positive influences on
thickness swelling, and modulus of rupture (MOR), white the internal bond seemed to decrease as a

high amount of tamtin was used in UF-resin systems. Negative influence was observed in the
thickness swelling and internal bond strength due to the use of tannin in PF-resin system. However,
modutus of rupture (MOR) seemed to be positively affected Further works are needed for the
improvement of tannin-UF and tannin-PF resin blends properties
